About Me

Coming to therapy takes courage. It asks you to be vulnerable, to let someone see the parts of you that feel messy, tired, or not enough. I know how scary that can be—because I’ve been there. But I also know that stepping into that space of self-discovery can be one of the most empowering things you ever do. It can help you feel known, grounded, and deeply connected to who you are. And that’s where healing begins.

As a therapist, I often work with people who feel like they’ve had to take care of everyone else, but struggle to let themselves be taken care of. If that sounds like you, you’re not alone. I’ve walked the path of burnout, perfectionism, people-pleasing—and the slow, transformative journey of learning that I am worthy of care, too.

I’m also a neurodivergent woman and a mom to a neurodivergent child. That lived experience has shaped not only how I show up as a parent, but how I show up as a therapist. I understand how overwhelming the world can feel when your brain processes things differently—and how hard it can be to parent a child who also walks that path. I bring compassion, insight, and practical tools to help both individuals and parents navigate life with more clarity and self-compassion.

When I became a mom, everything changed. I was no longer just “me”—I was me and baby. I found myself in survival mode, juggling the weight of caregiving with the longing to still feel like myself. That experience deepened my passion for supporting moms—especially those raising neurodivergent kids—who are searching for balance, identity, and support.

I believe therapy should be a space where you get to be fully seen and supported as you are. Whether you're learning to set healthy boundaries, explore your neurodivergence, rediscover who you are outside of motherhood, or heal from old wounds, I’m here to walk alongside you with warmth, honesty, and hope.

You deserve a life where your needs matter, where your voice is heard, and where you feel empowered to be wholly you. Let’s begin this journey together.
